My husband is the only one who knows that I have been using op's (for nearly a year now). He has been through alot of doctors appointments with me (pain management doctors, orthopaedists, physical therapists, etc.) and knows that I have been undermedicated and how much pain I am in on a day to day basis. I would never dream of keeping this a secret from him. It is my health and he has no problems with me spending money with op's to manage my pain. I am a responsible person...a wife, a mother to a 26 month old daughter and have to keep a clear head at all times. If I did NOT have pain meds available to me then I would be pretty much worthless to my family and myself. Thankfully op's exist or I wouldn't know where I'd be...probably taking leftover Celebrex that some idiotic doctor gave to me after my car accident to control my pain. Right!
